Yep.. lol supposed to be 4 holes there ... oh wait the other two are still attached to the gearbox

How is the curb?
?

 

[Jamart85]

Definitely snapped! Think it can be welded back on?

I seem to remember a build thread about a guy hitting a tree with metal arms and he broke his chassis too....oh wait that was me. And ChassisSnappy was born!

 

[Surchaufeur]

That hurts but m2c has a 50% off offer if you want remplace a part right?

 

[MFM]

Daaaamn!!

Just finished building my kraton with M2C parts. I was at a spot I wasn't to familiar with when I smoked a curb. Sounded like a gun shot!

Jason, have you thought about just getting an EXB and moving your parts over?

for someone like me, that would have been the better move.
I had to buy so much stuff for my front end crash that the total “repair” (upgrade) cost me $470 bucks.

but I only really broke $23 worth of stuff.


I just think this is going to be an onion repair..

your going to find broken parts in the back, to bent stuff as the energy dispersed on impact.

Yep, snapped the front two holes clean off. The chassis is still straight! Hahaha

I have some spare parts already. I think I will just have to buy a chassis , hinge pin block, and shock shaft. M2C supplies you with one extra hinge pin when you buy the kit. Although I haven't looked at the back half of the truck yet

Oh Man I hope the Curb survived ?.
no but it looks mostly Superficial I think all things considered you came away quite Lightly .
best of luck on the rebuild .
